Lots of new goodies from Google

Sorry for being so quiet lately. I’ve got a few big projects going on and I’ve been away from the Google Earth scene for a few days. However, things have been very active and there’s quite a lot to see!

More Historical Imagery — Google has added more historical imagery to Google Earth. This is an awesome new feature in Google Earth 5.0, and it’s great that they’re continuing to add more data to it.

A great lesson about Google Earth imagery — Like Frank, I often talk to people that assume Google Earth imagery is real-time, or at least close to it. As you probably know, that’s far from accurate. It takes quite a lot of work to get imagery into Google Earth, and this article does a great job of explaining it.
